JFM has completed all types of environmental
assignments for its clients over the full range of real property
settings. With respect to Phase I and Phase II work, JFM personnel
have conducted Environmental Site Assessments on behalf of all of
the following client groups:
| Banks & Trust Companies
|
Accounting Firms |
Investor Groups |
| Pension & Mutual Funds |
Law Firms |
Governments |
| Insurance Companies |
Real Estate Developers |
Real Estate Managers |
| Private Companies |
Public Corporations |
Individual Landowners |
Industrial, commercial and institutional facilities
that JFM personnel have examined as part of the Environmental
Site Assessment process include the following types of operations:
| Automobile Dealerships |
Agricultural Product Producers
|
Plating Operations |
| Autobody Repair Shops |
Construction Companies |
Recycling Plants |
| Electronics Manufacturers |
Chemical Producers |
Metal Fabricators |
| Wood Manufacturers |
Plumbing Fixture Manufacturers |
Food Processors |
| Lighting Manufacturers |
Health Care Facilities |
Land Developments |
| Schools |
Government Defense Installations |
Machine Shops |
| Commercial/Industrial Sites |
Apartments and Townhouses |
Hotels |
| Airport Facilities |
Waste Handling & Recycling Plants
|
Textile Manufacturers |
Many of the foregoing establishments were also
the object of significant intrusive-type soil and/or groundwater
investigations. JFM strives to minimize the amount of disruption
to the normal business operations of clients during such investigations.
Phase I / II environmental site assessment projects
of special note and unusual complexity that have been completed
by JFM personnel are as follows:

-
Undisclosed Locations, Throughout Ontario - Environmental site assessments and remediation associated with the pressure and removal of underground storage tanks that have..
-
Undisclosed Locations, Southwestern Ontario - Hydrogeological investigations associated with a large-scale land development project.
-
Undisclosed Location, Southwestern Ontario - Hydrogeological investigation associated with the relocation of an existing meadow marsh.
-
- Environmental site assessment
of a very large grain elevator facility associated with its
decommissioning. The facility consisted of 250 large grain silos
situated on an artificial peninsula. The site assessment included
the characterization of the soil and groundwater regime, and
nearby surface water receptors. The environmental assessment
of the building structures was also conducted.
-
- Conducted a site characterization
of a biohazard site. The site was historically used as a hospital
and an ancillary solid waste disposal area. The site characterization
included soil and groundwater assessment for the presence of
biohazards such as medical sharps, vials, ancillary chemical
compounds and the possible presence of viral contaminants.

-
- Environmental site assessment associated with
the decommissioning of a chemical manufacturing plant. Project
included the characterization of soil and groundwater on the
subject property for the purposes of remediation. The demolition
of on-site buildings and tank farms was also included in the
decommissioning program.
-
- Hydrogeology for a comprehensive
site characterization of a major industrial hazardous landfill
site. The tasks of this study included: the review and assessment
of available technical information; historical practices associated
with the landfill and neighbouring facilities suspected to have
contributed to the possible presence of dense, non-aqueous phase
liquid (DNAPL) contamination; DNAPL characterization in the
unsaturated zone, in particular, depth of penetration, primary
mode of travel, areal extent and impact on local groundwater
quality. Specialized instrumentation was designed and installed
to monitor and sample the DNAPL contaminated soil and groundwater.
-
- Hydrogeologic study at a major industrial
property abutting a lake that was utilized for the storage of
several million tons of road salt. The scope of the study included
a review and assessment of historical hydrogeologic reports,
characterization of the shallow groundwater regime, an assessment
of the chemical quality of the groundwater, preparation of geologic
cross-sections, and the prediction of diffusion rates of the
identified contaminant compounds.
